Bloober Team Admits Making ‘Shitty Games,’ Aims To Move Past That Era

Expert Verified By

Silent Hill 2 Remake Wasn't A Fluke!

Story Highlight
  • Bloober Team has admitted that it has made some “shitty games,” but it is aiming to move past that era. 
  • The studio wants to enter a much-needed redemption arc with the announcement of Cronos: The New Dawn.
  • The studio also clarified that the success of the Silent Hill 2 remake was not a fluke by any means.

Bloober Team has had many highs and lows over the years. While some of its games were absolute gems to experience over the years, others completely fell short of fans’ expectations. However, the studio has arguably entered a new age after the massive success of Silent Hill 2 Remake, claiming that it wants to experience a much-needed redemption arc.

The devs have recently announced Cronos: The New Dawn, a twisted time travel story set in an unforgiving post-apocalyptic future in 1980s Poland. With that, Bloober Team has claimed that it is done making “shitty games” and wants to move past that era.

Why it matters: Bloober Team’s admittance to making mediocre titles in the past and trying to move past that era suggests that the studio is in high spirits after the success of Silent Hill 2 Remake. 

Silent Hill 2 Remake
Silent Hill 2 Remake has been a massive success among new and old players.

In a new interview with GameSpot, Bloober Team clarified that the success of Silent Hill 2 Remake was not a fluke by any means. It worked extremely hard to renovate the highly beloved IP, and it paid off. The studio claims to have found its niche and now wants to evolve with it. 

 “Like with [2016’s] Layers of Fear, people in the studio were like, ‘Okay, we made some shitty games before, but we [can] evolve.’

Bloober Team now features a motley of developers who love the horror genre, and the studio sees no point in switching to other genres. Therefore, it is entirely possible that we see even more Silent Hill games in the future.
